My phone says I need more iCloud storage In order to do a back up, yet I only have my camera roll currently turned on for back up and it says it's taking up 4.5GB yet I only have 3pictures currently on it......anyone know why this is happening? Solution?

I don't know if something's wrong or I just have it set up wrong?! I have turned off all other apps etc so the only thing currently being backed up is camera roll. I transferred all my pictures to my laptop and deleted them off my phone yet camera roll still says it's taking up 4.5 GB
